Sparkles & Sun

Hey dolls! The last couple of weeks have been busy for me, meeting up with friends, helping out at my dance school & i've also been off on some work experience :) All while my family were off on holiday.

I did my work experience at a jewlery concessions company that design, amend, sell and buy the jewlerly for high street brands such as topshop, miss selfridge, dorothy perkins etc.
It was a great experience, I learnt so much about the industry and learnt some invaluable techniques and how he whole company runs.

While on the placement I got the oppertunity to raid the dump boxes which is basically unsold or unueeded samples that otherwise would of been tossed in the bin.
Here are a few of the peices that I very luckily got to take home with me!


I learnt how to make braclets, earrings, rings, necklaces.. you name it and now have the jewlery buzz!
Here are some friendship braclets that I made by simply winding embroidery thread round 3 rows of cup chain. 



This weekend I went to V festival! Which was fab, I had the time of my life. It was pretty eventful however. I wish I'd taken more photos to show you but I only ended up seeing 3 acts and spent the rest of the time larking about with friends :)
We meet so many lovley people and I'm so excited to return next year!


 I would love to hear what you have been up to for the last couple of weeks
